Installation
Installation
The C2500 can be placed upright on a table or shelf,
standing on its four feet. It also can be custom in-
stalled in a piece of furniture or cabinet of your
choice. The four feet may be removed from the bottom
of the C2500 when it is custom installed as outlined
below. The four feet together with the mounting
screws should be retained for possible future use if the
C2500 is removed from the custom installation and
used free standing. The required panel cutout, ventila-
tion cutout and unit dimensions are shown.
Always provide adequate ventilation for your
C2500. Cool operation ensures the longest possible
operating life for any electronic instrument. Do not
install the C2500 directly above a heat generating
component such as a high powered amplifier. If all
the components are installed in a single cabinet, a
quiet running ventilation fan can be a definite asset in
maintaining all the system components at the coolest
possible operating temperature.
A custom cabinet installation should provide the
following minimum spacing dimensions for cool
operation.
Allow at least 6 inches (15.2cm) above the top, 2
inches (5.1cm) below the bottom and 1 inch (2.5cm)
on each side of the Preamplifier, so that airflow is not
obstructed. Allow 20 inches (50.8cm) depth behind the
front panel. Allow 1-7/16 inch (3.7cm) in front of the
mounting panel for knob clearance. Be sure to cut out
a ventilation hole in the mounting shelf according to
the dimensions in the drawing.
